...first is truly fascinating, showing the curious exactly where on one's auto one should paste both one's Commonwealth of Massachusetts non-resident student registration ("top center of windshield") and faculty, staff or student parking permit ("to be placed here.") The front and the rear of the sedan are labeled for easy identification. The other illustration--a flow chart of Harvard's organizational structure--is harder to follow. Power seems to flow from the Board of Overseers through the President and Fellows and down to the Expository Writing Committee. Connected by a dotted line--indicative of their mystifying purposes...
...Cadillac name plate on something as thinly veiled as the Cimarron? I doubt it." The new model is designed to appeal mainly to a new Cadillac customer: well-heeled younger drivers who can afford a $12,900 BMW 3201 or an $11,100 Audi 4000. But will a sports sedan customer be attracted to a car that has traditionally been synonymous with conspicuous consumption? And will he pay several thousand dollars more for a Cadillac than for a similarly equipped Pontiac J2000 that is built in the same plant? Admits one GM executive: "It will be a real test...

As he left his home one morning last May, two young gunmen shot him to death, then fled in a waiting Peugeot sedan. Within hours, the notorious Red Brigades claimed responsibility for the murder in a long communiqué attacking the Italian press. The bulletin was signed by a newly created branch of the terrorist organization known as the March 28 Brigade, named for the date in 1980 when four Red Brigades members died...
...Outward Bound for driving. At the speeds required (70 to 80 m.p.h.), students at first have no sense of how to control the car-or whether they have it in control at all. Many Americans are defensive drivers, quite content to putt around in an underpowered, six-year-old sedan, carefully navigating the maniacal freeway traffic that surrounds many cities. And every sensible and safe reflex built up for that kind of driving must be violated in Scott's course...
